"We are always practicing in times of loss and threat [...]. More often, the losses and threats are carried on the words of one and in the heart of the other, patient and analyst building the healing frame of belonging."

"Perhaps the antidote to the internal wound is not happiness, but a relational home for those of us whose despair takes the form of feeling invisible." - The search for a relation home, #ChrisJaenicke

Still revisiting Contexts of being (R.S.), and liking this little reminder: "Pain is not pathology. It is the absence of adequate attunement and responsiveness to the child's painful reactions that renders them unendurable and thus a source of traumatic states..."And you, reading something you like?

"The image of the mind looking out on the external world is a heroic image or heroic myth, in that it portrays the inner essence of the person surviving in a state that is separated from all that actually sustains life." - Robert D. Stolorow (Contexts of being 1992)

A good reminder this morning.
